Daily Observations!


dren-white and black-are getting OF
quite nicely together. -. Another grea
scheme is on hand, including the manu-
facture of the Wood Baling Machine
An extensive factory for making glass
is also contemplated. 49,. They are go
ing to wave "palms of victory" at Petres
next Sunday, so say bills posted W
around town. Mrs. Jack Gilliland, OF
Mabees, is visiting friends in town 49,.
A large prayer meeting at NJ E. tonight
...... The remains of Miss Eliza Kueh
ner were taken down on the morning
train to-day to Samsonville, the home OF
the Kuehners, for burial Harry Marsh.
man accompanied, as undertaken.
Sheriff Lively returned from Cincinnati
......A citizen asked the question to-day
whether this town cannot have the Sab
bath day respected by the shutting up of
the stores. 1t is hard question to an
swer, but it is quite probable that the
matter will be investigated in the near
future. If stores and doggeries are per-
mitted to run all day Sunday, just the
same as Saturday or Monday, why not
have platform dances and base ball
games. so as to let the boys have some
real enjoyment? A stranger coming into
jackson on Sunday night, and finding
these places in full blast, would not care
about moving here and investing very
much money in town that permitted
the Sabbath to be disregarded as much
as Patagonian would do. Friends,
think of these things.
THURsDAY.-G. W. Rice and T. A.
Jones returned from Cincinnati The
Knights of Pythias went to Coalton. -.
We tried to make an estimate, from the
sound, this evening, of the number of
dogs on Portsmouth street-and not one
of which is worth nickel-and after
careful calculation came to the con-
clusion that there are a little less
than seventeen hundred. -. The scales
are being moved to-day. We are of opin-
m that it would have been vastly better
for the town and county, as long as there
is to be building where the old Jail
stands, to have leased that portion of the
Public Square and had erected thereon a
beautiful three-story building, as could
have been done. A young man named
Petty, a brakeman on tn o. s., was report
ed killed.. last week, but was afterwards
seen walking about the streets of Jack
son. He was badly bruised up, but we
guess he isn't killed. If he is, he don't
know it,. The operators have been
perambulating with their little satchels
to-day. A leading coal operator informed
US tonight that at least fifty thousand
dollars was paid out in Jackson County
to-day by the coal men. That looks like
business Mrs. Frances Wartenbe
called at this office. This lady was
thrown from a buggy some time ago, and
is still suffering from the effects.
Brookins has his new bakery building
nearly completed. james Meacham
is working up the creek to-day. IA
slight-of-hand show at the Rink.
FRIDAY.-The Heavy Artillery boys
are holding meeting tonight to make
arrangements for the Regimental Reun-
ion. The stores are beginning to dis
play the bunting and flag calico 49,.
Walter Jones of Oak Hill, is in town. =.
Some of the people here were shocked
at the account in the Chillicothe papers
concerning Wolfe, the man who was here
getting up the Rechabite Lodge or Tent,
and was arrested on our streets by the
Chillicothe Marshal and taken away The
Advertiser has evidently gotten Wolfe
and Larkins mixed. Larkins was here
and pretended to organize Good Tenn
miserable fraud. We know nothing
about Wolfe, but the Chillicothe paper
says he has been proven fraud. We
trust not. At all events, the Tent here
is on solid basis, and growing. IA
number of our people are buying muslin
to make temporary ticks or mattresses,
to fill with straw and use for bedding
during the Reunion. The muslin can be
used for other purposes afterward. .....
Harvey Wells has gone west to look af-
ter his big deal. A Jackson man met
him few days ago on his way to Chica-
go.....We met Tom Rogers on the street
to-day, and learn that he has quit driving
the Buffalo Skull milk wagon. =. Rev.
F. S. Davis called to-day. Mr.. Davis
looks as though his Portsmouth home
agreed with him. Some time ago we
sickness was both temporary and slight,
and we forgot to correct the statement.
He has had good health in Portsmouth,
as BELTS so good man. There are few
ministers of such ability in the M. E.
Conference.
SATURDAY.-Art. Monahan is back. :.
The new pump at the Court House well
has been raised for repairs. 1t doesn't seem
to do the work as well as the old wooden
log formerly in the we'll. IA man has
been going about town for several days
tipping his hat, and shaking hands with
people, and using the expression the
more you know me, the better you'll like
me-" There don't seem to be a general
desire to catch on the acquaintance.
Mr.. Pugh superintended the building of
a very substantial dam across Horse
Greek, for the purpose of running water
down to the big Nail Mill. George never
does any thing by halves, and this dam is
a success. AS Bob Ingerson would say,
it is a good dam job. So thoroughly did
it's beauty impress DR.. Morgan, of the
Nail Mill Co., that he had very impress
i've dream about it. Ask the Doctor
about his dream. There was large
meeting of Francis Smith Post, G. A. R.,
tonight. Commander DUNCAN presided
Mr.. Armstrong came home this
morning. He is not, seemingly, in good
health. -. Mr.. Brookins has his bakery
and confectionery about finished, on
Pearl Street. 80. james Meacham, and
his workmen are building twenty new
houses up the creek, ten of them at Jones'
town, and ten at the Patterson Mines, we
believe 80. The land selected-if it can
be obtained-for the great Agricultural
Implement Factory and Machine Shop, is
tho Gam Mitoba11 farm north of TOWN
